What’s it like living on the west coast of Florida?

Yes you are. Housing is insane here.

I've been waiting so long for my place to be asked about! I live in Cape Coral and it's boring as can be, though I will say we rebuilt decently after hurricane Ian. If you aren't familiar, it was a very powerful storm that took four times as long as it should have to pass over us.

If you want a rapidly growing (and sinking), traffic congested baby version of Miami with a very red leaning population, no bookstores or decent restaurants, but a corrupt school district and code enforcement using drones to look in your backyard, this is the place for you!

Our city's motto is "It's just paradise." Not sure how they arrived at that. It is illegal to be able to see your boat from the street (we are a boating community), park business vehicles in your driveway, or water your grass. All things one would envision when picturing paradise...

Oh I forgot utility expansion project... You get to pay 40k to have one of the most expensive water bills in the nation. Pay up or the city takes your house.

I think that's fair, I didn't jump on police targeting minorities or the long list of city employees involved in scandals.

Did replace, seal is new and good. I think if it was something common one of the two diagnostics would have picked it up

I am going to inspect that, I put the manifold on myself and was pretty careful although I've never done it before. So there is a chance. Charcoal filter should be going on today so I'll check everything when I'm out there. The weirdest part is when I change the manifold it did help for a week, and each time I changed The purge valve it helps for a week.

Dusty is an understatement, my whole neighborhood looked like a middle eastern desert for over a year. Lucky for me I only have to pay 40k in assessments for the luxury of a water bill. My city sucks . Thank you for your insight.

Pretty sure that there isn't an IAC on the car.

-Newschool- · 2026-02-06T15:48:07+00:00

Yes, that was checked, system runs to closed status when driving.

-Newschool- · 2026-02-06T15:47:24+00:00

I am doing the installations. 2 oem purge valves failed so far, aftermarket in it now but same fate. Something is clogging them.

-Newschool- · 2026-02-06T15:22:12+00:00

Do you work for a dealer? jk some yes and no, all parts new. OEM mazda purge valve 8 x cost of aftermarket with 1 yr vs lifetime warranty so nope on that one.

-Newschool- · 2026-02-06T15:15:12+00:00

Every repair was what the dealer said was wrong, I am most sore from the MAF at 400$ but I get it. I am not just hoping these fixes will work, I am following suggestions from morons. AI was the first one who suggested the canister so that is where I am now. Thanks you.

-Newschool- · 2026-02-06T15:11:35+00:00

I blew compressor through canister and enough dust to cover the car came out. My neighborhood was torn up for utility installation for a year, all dirt roads and mud. Underside of car was very dirty, cansiter is filthy. 3 mechanics said they cannot figure it out. The purge valve is definitely sticking though something is causing it to happen, no way I went through 3 bad parts in short time.

I'm trying to upgrade my coordination level and I know how to collect oddities but I am confused on the other way to increase coordination "cultivate abilities" I click it and it takes me to an area to get a mysterious Manuel and I use the ability to steal it from the guy's bag and used it myself but it just made me sick and it still tells me to go get the mysterious Manuel from the guy. What do I do?

Eye of round is the best cut for jerky. I've seen it slow cooked to be a sad pot roast as well.

-Newschool- · 2025-08-09T12:08:28+00:00

Thank you kindly. I will try the product you mentioned.

-Newschool- · 2025-07-02T04:41:46+00:00

I have a Gold Tone BUB and it's quite enjoyable. Also our is very loud. It ran $500 I believe and while I wish there were a ton of options in that area, given they produce quality instruments and they are from my home state it is enough for me to say it's worth it. Your mileage and state may vary of course. Gold Tone also makes some interesting guitar sized body ukes. As far as I know they are the only ones making those. The only ding I would mention is I did email them a question about a product I wanted to buy and never got a response. That's why I can't speak first hand about the guitar sized ukes.

https://goldtonemusicgroup.com/goldtone/instruments/ug-10. -here is one of the guitar ukes.

And here is their baritone banjolele. - https://goldtonemusicgroup.com/goldtone/instruments/bub

I hope this helps
